Video over Future Networks: Emerging Technologies, Infrastructures, and Applications

This special issue aims to highlight research work that investigate future Internet technologies through the prism of its most prevalent application: video distribution. Intriguing research questions abound: How can Named Data Networking (NDN) support live video streaming? What is the most efficient distribution mechanism for social sharing of user-generated video? What are proper performance metrics for novel networked multimedia applications based on augmented/virtual reality?

We invite submissions of high-quality papers on either original research or surveys/overviews, which have not been published previously. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

– Dynamic resource provisioning for video distribution over SDN-enabled networks
– Network-assisted rate adaptation in SDN-enabled networks
– In-network caching and caching for mobile video delivery
– Video distribution over Information Centric Networking (NDN) architectures
– Cost and economic models for video distribution over future networks
– Network support for emerging novel applications, e.g., based on augmented reality (AR)
– Networking and distributed systems for augmented reality (AR)
– Distribution of ultra-high-definition (UHD) video over next-generation networks
– Distribution of user-generated media content over future Internet
– Network and cloud support for real-time video analytics
– Integration of video distribution and multimedia computing
